We used Derek to renovate our bathroom, transfer a toilet from one room to another, and remove a boiler and radiators. The bathroom renovation included removing a bathtub and installing a shower and toilet alongside tiling the floor and walls. He coordinated the tiling and electrical work with additional tradespeople which was completed to a very high standard.
Derek was very helpful throughout the process and we would not hesitate to recommend or use his services again. He left everything neat and tidy and was thorough and attentive to every little detail.

The work we had done was the total refit of our bathroom and second toilet. Derek and his team did a fantastic job in helping us make the right design decisions at the start in order to get a bathroom that not only met our needs but was also way better looking than we could ever have imagined. The work was carried out efficiently and properly with the utmost professionalism and friendliness from start to finish and caused less disruption and time than we had anticipated. We are delighted with our new bathroom and would not hesitate to recommend Derek to anyone thinking of having similar work done.

Replacement Boiler. Initially came to inspect existing boiler and gave impartial advice and guidance. This is the second time Derek has undertaken work for us. At all times punctual, professional and work carried out within the time planned. When work completed all areas left tidy. Initial estimate was slightly higher than others but chose to go ahead because of previous positive experience, final costs were less than anticipated and reflected in bill. Would definitely recommend.

Derek was recommended to us. He covered the plumbing aspects of installing a shower room. He was creative, prompt, efficient, helpful, and capable. A pleasure to have around. His bill was very reasonable.

Derek is a top notch plumber, really good skills, very organised and punctual.
The work around our Boiler and Water Tank is almost a work of art.
Probably too nice for his own good, but the best Tradesman we have had.
Not sure he needs this review, because he must get a lot of repeat work and word of mouth work.

Derek was very helpful to me when I was planning to replace all my radiators, relocating some, with very reliable advice.
He always was on time, and tidied up meticulously every day.
His work was excellent, and he coordinated easily with the painters & decorators!
I will need him again soon for bathroom work, & probably a new boiler.
I would recommend him highly.

We used Derek Christie Plumbing to fully upgrade our central heating system. This involved fully replacing the boiler and all existing radiators, as well as moving some to different locations in the rooms and adding new ones to increase the house output where required.
Derek was able to suggest the best solution for our needs at a very reasonable price. He and the other engineers who attended completed the work ahead of schedule and kept things tidy throughout the works. We remaining living in the house while the work was complete with minimal disruption to our normal routine.
We are really happy with the work and would full recommend him to others!

Derek and his colleagues installed a new bathroom for us including all tiling and plumbing. The work was carried out very professionally. The team turned up when they said they would, were always polite and courteous, and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each working day. The work was performed to a very high standard.
Very pleased and would readily recommend.

We had our bathroom shower repaired and restored. All the bathroom tiles removed and replaced with splash back boards. This now makes the bathroom look very clean and bright. The shower looks and feels brand new. We were very pleased with all aspects of the work, which was carried out to a high standard and in a timely fashion. We would definitely use this company again and highly recommend.

We were so pleased with Derek, my 89 year old mothers heating broke (during winter) and he was able to come the next day after only being phoned the previous evening. He was really busy but came after his current job (outwith normal working hours) just to ensure that she wasn't without heat. When he did arrive he was brilliant with us and very reasonably priced. Overall we intend to use him again and would recommend him to anyone!

Anticipating a necessarily stressful time, I was very happy with the friendly approach of Derek Christie and his team.
Derek and I had discussed what I wanted of a 'new' bathroom. He took my opinions on board and made helpful suggestions. I felt fully involved in the design process and was confident of the result. The work progressed well and with a friendly atmosphere.
I am absolutely delighted with my new bathroom. Small though it is, it is bright and beautiful. Derek also created more storage space without making the room seem crowded. Visitors have been impressed, and one, a joiner, gave it the 'wow' factor! The team swept up every night and I was always left with a clean bathroom.
I could not praise Derek Christie enough!
